Thursday, July 13, 2023 - 20:00 to 22:30

Created in 1997 for the Paris Opera Ballet, thiswork was born out of the painter OlivierDebré’s desire to paint a series of abstract tableaux: evocations of that primordial sign, thesmile. Taking these flamboyant painted scenes as her starting point, representing different places in the world like so many different emotional states and humours, thechoreographer Carolyn Carlson sets herdancers in motion to an original score by RenéAubry and gives life to a dreamlike piece. Aballet that has since become a cult work intheParis Opera repertoire, Signes embodies the links between painting, music and dance andextends them to the stage.
